A MXOLOGIST AT WORK
by Don Carroll
in the beginning,
the world was like
a mixed drink -
it took a few shots
to have a critical effect.
chaos grew leaps and bounds,
and it became the principle
of altered reasoning.
creativity in ironic conceptions
became commonplace as the ultimate tradition.
but then interpreters were in great need
amongst a bunch of drunk souls.
opinions were of such slurrings
that the whole batch of them
were merely philosophers in disquise.
it was a beautiful guarantee amongst peers.
there were no rejections -
the poets loved it.
